Abstract

A semiconductor laser resonator configured to generate a laser beam includes a gain medium layer including a semiconductor material and comprising at least one protrusion formed by at least one trench to protrude in an upper portion of the gain medium layer. In the semiconductor laser resonator, the at least one protrusion is configured to confine the laser beam as a standing wave in the at least one protrusion.
